Download or read book Catalysis By Gold written by Geoffrey C Bond and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2006-08-15 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gold has traditionally been regarded as inactive as a catalytic metal. However, the advent of nanoparticulate gold on high surface area oxide supports has demonstrated its high catalytic activity in many chemical reactions. Gold is active as a heterogeneous catalyst in both gas and liquid phases, and complexes catalyse reactions homogeneously in solution. Many of the reactions being studied will lead to new application areas for catalysis by gold in pollution control, chemical processing, sensors and fuel cell technology. This book describes the properties of gold, the methods for preparing gold catalysts and ways to characterise and use them effectively in reactions. The reaction mechanisms and reasons for the high activities are discussed and the applications for gold catalysis considered./a

Download or read book The Chemoselective Catalytic Oxidation of Alcohols Diols and Polyols to Ketones and Hydroxyketones written by Ronald Michael Painter and published by Stanford University. This book was released on 2011 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The chemoselective oxidation of vicinal diols to α-hydroxyketones is a challenge in organic syntheses because not only does the diol need to be oxidized selectively to a monocarbonyl compound, but diols are also prone to overoxidation and oxidative cleavage. Employing a cationic palladium complex, [(neocuproine)Pd(OAc)]2(OTf)2, we were able to demonstrate the selective oxidation of glycerol to dihydroxyacetone mediated by either benzoquinone or O2 as the terminal oxidant, an accomplishment that has little precedent in homogeneous catalysis. Mechanistic studies were undertaken to uncover the nature of this remarkable chemoselectivity. Kinetic and deuterium-labeling studies implicate reversible β-hydride elimination from isomeric Pd alkoxides and turnover-limiting displacement of the dihydroxyacetone product by benzoquinone. We successfully extended this methodology to other terminal 1,2-diols and symmetric vicinal 1,2-diols and have carried out aerobic oxidation of these substrates catalyzed by 1. Examination of the reactivity of 1 with conformationally-restricted 1,2-cyclohexanediols suggests that the diol must chelate to the Pd center for effective oxidation to the hydroxyketone product. In a separate project, we have also investigated the electrocatalytic reduction of dioxygen by several dinuclear copper complexes, an important reaction for fuel cell applications.
